Okay, so, I gotta tell you about what I did today. I got this wild idea to try and predict the outcome of the Braves vs. Dodgers game. You know, just for kicks. I’m no expert, but it sounded like a fun little project.
First, I started by digging around online. Just wanted to see what others were saying about these teams. I mean, they’re both pretty big deals in baseball, right? Found some stuff about a game on September 1st, 2023 – seemed like a big one. Also stumbled upon some info saying the Braves were on a three-game winning streak back in August 2023. That got me thinking about how they’ve been playing lately.
Then I found more recent stuff, like predictions for a game that already happened. Wish I’d seen that earlier! Some people were talking about a guy named Yoshinobu Yamamoto and how he was expected to play well. And there was something about a Saturday night game with Bryce Elder and Tyler Glasnow as pitchers.
The Real Research Started
- I looked at some predictions for a future game.
- One prediction said Braves 5, Dodgers 4.
- Another talked about the total runs being over 7.5.
- And get this, they said the Dodgers had a 52% chance of winning!
So, with all this info jumbled in my head, I started making my own guess. It wasn’t easy, I tell ya. These teams are both so good. It felt like trying to guess which way a coin would flip. But I tried to use the numbers and what others were saying to make a somewhat educated guess.
I finally landed on a prediction, but honestly, I’m not super confident. It’s more like a fun guess than anything serious. I thought, maybe the Braves will win, but it could easily go the other way. It’s just one of those things where you gotta watch the game to really find out.
This whole thing was more about the process, you know? It was cool to dive into all the stats and see what people were saying. Made me feel a bit like those sports analysts on TV, even if just for a little while. I might not be placing any bets, but it sure was a fun way to spend an afternoon.
